    That mining town was so cool to see. That someone took the time to preserve history & not just rip it apart one board at a time. For an entire village. I can almost imagine those who lived there back then. How they dresses & carried themselves. How they lived & prepared, preserved their foods. Thanks for taking us along & sharing.

    So cool to see this place again, I visited Barkerville a little over a decade ago when I was quite young and the memories it imprinted on me are so amazing. You can’t trade that for anything in the world. Thanks for helping me experience a bit of my childhood again Greg. Love your videos

    Been watching you for a few years Greg. Appreciate the effort to put out this awesome stuff and show people what is out there. I grew up hunting and fishing the Hardwoods of KY, spent the last 25 years out west exploring the deserts and mountains of CA, NV. UT, CO, OR, WA and even lived in Idaho for a while.....Now semi retired in Florida enjoying the Salty life......Few understand the necessity for natural surroundings and adventure to lift the human spirit and experience God's green earth. I am planing a 60 day trip to Alaska in an RV with my wife and dogs in 2024.
    Keep up the great videos and influence the next generation of explorers and adventurers!

    Throughout the 80s I would travel from Florida to North Carolina and Tennessee to venture into the mountains, white water, hike and camp and more. Your videos have struck that nerve and Im itching to get back up that way. In my half Century of life I have watched the population grow and begin cutting into many of those areas that I once believed would remain. I question my own ability to get into those adventures I once enjoyed so much. Your content is very inspiring. The videography is stunning and locations just breathtaking. I respect your love of History and interest into things from the past. Especially the many inventions and tools once designed to conquer the hardships and works of so long ago. I am so pleased to have found your channel. I really hope to get out and into some sort of wilderness. Would absolutely love to meet you and spend some time learning from you in person. I have already learned so much. God Bless my friend. Be safe and take care. Love Finn as well.

    Hello Greg! Years ago, I, my son, a friend and her nephew, stopped at a place n Colorado and panned for gold, found gold flakes, garnet and Oliveine. We spent a few hours panning, I enjoy doing things like that, though it was nothing new to me, but apparently a guy that worked there found me fascinating/amusing to watch, he came up to me towards the end and said “ I have been watching u, I watched u go from light brown to dark golden brown, everyone else burns” of course this was not new to me, I never got a sun burn (now n my older years, that’s a different story Lol) but I’m happy that he found it fascinating. I love watching ur videos, not only do I learn things from u, I so much love the scenery around u! I would have enjoyed that town, it definitely would have taken my imagination back to those days! And the bears, wow, so many n such a short time, I’ve only seen them TV or UA-cam, never has I seen them eat foliage till ur video! Thank u for sharing this trip!

We actually had a 4 cell placer claim on the Cottonwood River kind of in between Quesnel and Barkerville that we worked for a couple seasons.

    There's lots of old mines and remnants of mining towns where I'm from too. Most of them are coal and tin mines, but there's gold in these valleys too. And sadly a lot of them are left in ruins, not made a heritage site 😕

    Awesome stuff Greg. Lots of bears in the valleys right now, saw 2 grizzlies on the side of the road today here in K country.
